The influence of the institutional environment on development of investment activity in the agricultural sector of the economy

For over ten years, Ford Vehicle Operations has utilized an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system to assist in the creation and maintenance of process build instructions for our vehicle assembly plants. This system, known as the Direct Labor Management System, utilizes a restricted subset of English called Standard Language as a tool for the writing of process build instructions for the North American plants. The expansion of DLMS beyond North America as part of the Global Study Process Allocation System (GSPAS) required us to develop a method to translate these build instructions from English to other languages. This Machine Translation process, developed in conjunction with SYSTRAN, has allowed us to develop a system to automatically translate vehicle assembly build instructions for our plants in Europe and South America.

Globalization of Equity Policy Portfolios, October 2009

The rapid development of competitive global markets oblige the Ukrainian company to provide fast adaptation to changes in the external environment, to gain and hold a certain market share, and strive to expand. That is why the issue of achieving and maintaining the competitiveness of Ukrainian businesses in global competitive markets. While the innovation and investment process that facilitates the introduction of advanced science and technology and stimulates the attraction of temporarily free funds for the purpose of financing the development of science. Innovative investment process is a process of development, creation and implementation of innovative product by attracting investment resources. He plays in ensuring the competitiveness of products, and, consequently, the competitiveness of Ukrainian businesses in global markets, because it aims at reducing the release of product to market and costs of production and promotion of products and increase its quality.

This work is a scientific research, based on the comparison of different terminological branches, where the terminological units of the most influential foreign languages are presented. This approach is relevant in our time due to the globalization of the world economy. Because the globalization process is active, regardless of the attitude to it of some countries or some groups of the population. The descriptive method and elements of the structure-typological method are used in the work. The process of creation of modern legal and economic terms is studied synchronously; when the need arises to explain the origin of terms, to show the path taken by this or that term, the author turned to etymological dictionaries, i.e. the data of dichrony was obtained. Thus, the novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time in the formation of alternative words, which we are all used to and do not perceive them as such, described ways of adapting terminoelelements of classical origin in near-spoken and non-spoken Indo-European languages (Ukrainian, German, French, English). However, they underwent a difficult historical process of formation, being transformed into the hyphenated aphixi or medial parts of modern terms, for which the old Greek and Latin languages were their bosoms. The paper presents a detailed analysis of the dictionary definitions, in the structure of which the final terminological elements are highlighted. Suffixal borrowed lexemes of modern terms are considered in terms of their semantic analysis and morphology of the Latin language as the most common final elements in European languages. The hypothesis of complete or partial adaptation of the structural elements is confirmed and the ways and means of their penetration into the systems of various languages are considered. This article is also based on the deductive method and is an attempt to substantiate the study of language phenomena and their regularities through the singular to the riddle. There are no guesses, conjectures, notions, fantasies. The work is based on concrete language facts, formalized and synthesized into general conclusions, and interpreted into semantic models. In the future they can be used in information and speech languages and the systems that serve them. The new trends of Industry 4.0 and related technologies are impossible without the exchange of data put by people in an automated system. That is why we are creating in real time the future basis that defines the cultural identification of people.

Purpose: To generalize a taxonomy of responsible investment strategies based on assessing the main trends in the development of SRI at the global level and by major geographical regions. Analyse the types of existing SRI strategies and rank them according to their leading positions and active use in different geographical regions. Design/Method/Approach: System-structural in order to generalize approaches to the typology of socially responsible investment strategies in accordance with the current assets structure managed by investment managers, including by geographical regions; systematic analysis to identify current trends and patterns in the investment processes in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); statistical and graphical methods for quantitative and visual presentation of analysis results. Findings: The current mechanism of socially responsible investments distribution in comparison with traditional assets is characterized; global trends in the field of SRI are assessed; the taxonomy of SRI strategies in accordance with general scientific approaches and classifications of international investment organizations aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals at the global level has been formed and generalized. Theoretical Implications: A comprehensive assessment of global investment processes is carried out in the context of responsible investment and achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals; the most optimal approaches to the RI strategies typology have been determined based on its current trends, the level of attraction of them in different regions in order to apply them in the impact investments programs, developing the country's profile as an investment donor. Research Limitations/Future Research: The the obtained results will be used in the further study of the transformation of the stock market in Ukraine based on the responsible trajectory and fractal analysis. Also, identified responsible investment strategies can serve as a basis for developing the investment profile of the impact investment donor country, as well as for highlighting priority areas for attracting investments to restore the country's economy after crises, military conflicts and other macroeconomic destabilization factors.

With the acceleration of the process of economic globalization and foreign direct investment of multinational corporations, international direct investment becomes an important factor of promoting global economic growth. During the process of the United States' investing in China, the position of the United States in China's utilizing foreign direct investment continuously enhances. This thesis analyzed the number, areas, industry, decisive factors and the relationship with Sino-US trade of the United States' foreign direct investment in China; it concluded that the main motivation of the United States' foreign direct investment in China came from internal factors of China; The United States' foreign direct investment in China was highly correlated with Sino-US trade, it prompted Sino-US trade development. Therefore, China should take measures to make good use of the United States' direct investment.

In the modern era of globalized financial markets, the investment process has reached a qualitatively new level, transcending national borders and transforming into a complex ecosystem of international capital. Within this context, global investment funds play a key role, having evolved from simple financial intermediaries into powerful and flexible forms of international business organization. By accumulating resources from millions of investors and using advanced analytical and technological tools, they both follow global trends and actively shape them, determining the direction of financial flows and becoming the architects of a new investment reality. This paper attempts to describe the business models used by global investment funds, reducing them to a certain uniformity by identifying strategic patterns of action during crises and taking into account unfolding contemporary trends (geographic diversification, ESG standards, and technological transformation). The discovered patterns formed the basis of strategic models: Conservative Giants, Aggressive Innovators, and Balanced Generalists. These models reveal the underlying business models of funds and serve as a practical tool for management companies and regulators, enabling them to forecast trajectories of the global investment landscape and optimize business models in the face of increasing volatility and technological change. The obtained results can be used by regulators to develop more balanced approaches to supervising cross-border capital movements, as well as by asset managers to select optimal development strategies.

<abstract> <p>This paper analyses the causes of the downward trend in three key cohesion aspects of the world economy: international trade, foreign investment and global value chains. The paper shows that the causes of these trends are not cyclical, but structural; that is, it is the process of deglobalization of the international market, and transformation of the very foundation of the international economic system is underway. The specific aim of the study was to investigate the impact of current trends on China's economy. The question is whether the Chinese economy, which has developed due to globalization processes, will be negatively affected by reverse processes, and to what extent. To capture the short-run effect of globalization-related factors on China's economy, an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model was used. For estimation of the long-run linkage, the ARDL bounds testing approach to cointegration was launched. The results of testing the short-term effects showed that the new Chinese development strategy, aimed at protecting domestic economy from external disturbances, has produced excellent results. Significant changes in the Chinese development paradigm, as based on domestic production to meet domestic demand and financed by internal resources, have led to a decrease in the share of all international indicators in the Chinese economy. This is shown by both the statistical description of changes in the globalization-related variables, and it is confirmed by the results of conducted empirical research. Testing of long-term relationships has given conflicting results, so it is not possible to identify the long-term impact with certainty. Nevertheless, the parts of bounds testing that are statistically indisputable indicate a long-term, strong cumulative impact of these variables on the Chinese economy, while the direction and intensity of the action of individual variables are unpredictable. A new paradigm enables China to take a better international position as a global investor instead of a recipient of investments, to take over growing parts of global product chains instead of being their production link and to initiate a new form of globalization in the Chinese way.</p> </abstract>

The role and place of financial policy in the modern state`s development in the conditions of globalization processes are determined. The urgency of improving the theoretical and methodological instruments concerning the implementation of modern financial policy and conducting additional research on the relationship of its effectiveness with the activity of investment and innovation processes in the country is substantiated. The analysis of publishing activity on the implementation of financial policy at the state and regional levels has shown an increase in recent scientific interest in this issue, which indicates its relevance. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the results of regional financial policy with indicators of investment and innovation activity of economic entities in the region. Methods of economic, system and comparative analysis and synthesis were used in the research process. Сalculation, analytical and graphical methods, regression analysis were used in the processing of statistical data. This article considers the indicators of socio-economic development that determine the effectiveness of financial policy at the regional level. The dynamics of the gross regional product for the Slobozhansky region of Ukraine (Poltava, Sumy and Kharkiv regions) was analyzed, the key factors influencing its volumes were also identified The dynamics of changes in the size of wages per employee was studied. Trends in changes in capital investment in the region were analyzed and regression analysis was performed, which showed a high level of relationship between the volume of capital investment and gross regional product. It was determined that a significant factor influencing the effectiveness of regional financial policy is the innovative activity of economic entities in the region. A regression analysis was performed between the volumes of innovation expenditures and gross regional product and the corresponding models characterizing it were obtained. As a conclusion was identified that the effectiveness of regional financial policy is directly related to the level of investment and innovation activity of enterprises in the region.

The propensity for natural resource-rich nations to lash out at foreign investors is profound, and likely to grow. To maintain their footing, managers must place renewed emphasis on strategic planning and forward-looking risk management—at all phases of the trade and investment process. Being ‘reactive’ is no longer sufficient. Corporate managers must consider how to reevaluate existing activities and analyze new opportunities in light of the rapidly changing global investment climate. The best way to address these risks is to establish risk management procedures that ask the right questions and establish effective methods for managing risk—before it becomes an issue. The ability to conduct realistic and effective international scenario planning and stress testing is essential.

The importance of multinational firms on the growth of the global economy has been generally acknowledged by the international community under the background of global investment. However, the investment process’s negative influence on the environment of the host country is often not taken into account. With the growing conflict between international investment and environmental protection, it is urgent to explore how to make multinational corporations bear environmental responsibilities. In order to explore how to improve the environmental responsibility of Chinese multinational corporations in International Investment, this paper is based on the “One Belt, One Road”, and analyzes the existing international legal regulations, the environmental responsibilities of multinational corporations, and the challenges faced by multinational corporations in taking the environmental responsibility. The analysis leads to the conclusion that the issue of environmental protection should be addressed by increasing social responsibility among multinational corporations as well as by enhancing the system for international investment litigation and improving the content of already-existing international investment agreements with regard to environmental protection obligations. This will help Chinese multinational corporations to address environmental protection issues in their overseas investments under the “One Belt, One Road”.

Nowadays in conditions of instability of global processes and crisis phenomena, initiators of infrastructure projects are increasingly paying attention to new financial and debt instruments and mechanisms that were previously applied not so much to infrastructure as to consumer products and ensuring the commercial activities of companies. The involvement of a mass investor, a solvent population, in investment processes makes it possible to diversify capital sources, attract the final beneficiaries of infrastructure to the implementation of projects, and the issuance of bonds for a specific project or the implementation of an investment program, as a whole, makes it possible to ensure stable debt financing and maturity management on the part of the issuer. The study presents the experience and real cases of developed countries and considers features and possibilities of implementing infrastructure projects in the Russian Federation using the «new money» tool - crowdfunding.
